BREAKING FRIDAY 2-25-05 at 9:30 am est!!! Can I get confirmation? I called Senate Orrin Hatch's aide this morning in DC and he told me that this morning, Terri was given an additional one week's STAY. (why does Orrin Hatch's office know something that nobody else knows?) My www.sptimes.com had a headline that read "Humbled lawmakers say court is final Judge" Metro & State Section.

It would be nice if someone would tell Floridians what was going on. THE QUOTE BY DANIEL WEBSTER made me sick. "The Court has come up with much better solutions than we have so far." Daniel Webster who we thought was for justice. By the way DANIEL WEBSTER'S PHONE LINE IS SWAMPED. I called to complain about his HORRID QUOTE. Did the death lobby wear him down???

970 WFLA has nothing about a one week's stay.

If Webster's quote is in the St.Pete Times.......it needs confirmation/clarification from another source.

We don't need anybody's permission, to stand up and defend human life, or to take actions that we can to preserve human life. We don't need anybody's permission. We already have a commandment from almighty God, to help your brothers and sisters. You don't need any LEGAL permission, you don't need any CHURCH permission, you don't need any permission from ANYBODY. Its because you're a human being. And that's a human being, that the law of almighty God, demands that you act.

Sounds like he is advocating direct action to save her. But also heard the Schiavo camp and hospice have hired a bunch of burly off-duty police officers to prevent anyone from taking action. A nasty confrontation is building if Judge Greer says "take out the tube" and then goes home for the weekend. Hope Jeb has a contingency plan to protect both her life and public order.

I wrote all the government officials that I could think of. Thanks for this post. Previously, I had done nothing. I guess late is better than never.

[freepertoo]

Thank you for writing...it's not too late to write or call right now...this isn't over yet.

[Pegita]

In Terri's own words ... "where there's life, there's hope." Amen ...

+ Praying ...

Outstanding post, FL!

Greers decree to starve Terri, HAS NO AUTHORITY. People should REFUSE TO COMPLY!

[TAdams8591]

Wonderful if TRUE. Interesting. How would HATCH know?

Fantastic!!!


Thank you, Fr. Frank!!!

And thank you, FL_Engineer, for your outstanding work in transcribing this wonderful homily. What would Free Republic be without you?

[Lauren BaRecall]

A terrific job, as usual! I have an appointment, so I'll read it more thoroughly later.

I love Fr. Frank! His words to Michael are SO RIGHT and GODLY. Will Michael listen? Even if one should rise from the dead to give him the message? Fr. Frank hit the nail on the head with that!

[Goodgirlinred]

Thank you for the ping. She and her family are in my prayers.

[Goodgirlinred]

Wonderful homily! If it goes to the U.S. Supreme Court, I wish Father Frank could speak on Terri's behalf.

[Kitty Mittens]

FL Engineer, Thank you for the Ping! His Homily was Wonderful!

Amen and Amen to your Powerful Prayer, sister Pegita!

[Texas Termite]

Our prayers are being said for Terri and her parents.

Logan, Beth & Nana
